Find the volume of the described solid of revolution or state that it does not exist. The region bounded by \(f(x)=\left(x^{2}-1\right)^{-1 / 4}\) and the \(x\) -axis on the interval (1,2] is revolved about the \(y\) -axis.
\(A\) powerful tool in solving problems in engineering and physics is the Laplace transform. Given a function \(f(t),\) the Laplace transform is a new function \(F(s)\) defined by $$ F(s)=\int_{0}^{\infty} e^{-s t} f(t) d t $$ where we assume that s is a positive real number. For example, to find the Laplace transform of \(f(t)=e^{-t},\) the following improper integral is evaluated: $$ F(s)=\int_{0}^{\infty} e^{-s t} e^{-t} d t=\int_{0}^{\infty} e^{-(s+1) t} d t=\frac{1}{s+1} $$ Verify the following Laplace transforms, where a is a real number. $$f(t)=t \longrightarrow F(s)=\frac{1}{s^{2}}$$
Refer to the summary box (Partial Fraction Decompositions) and evaluate the following integrals. $$\int \frac{x^{3}+1}{x\left(x^{2}+x+1\right)^{2}} d x$$
Use the indicated substitution to convert the given integral to an integral of a rational function. Evaluate the resulting integral. $$\int \frac{d x}{\sqrt{x}+\sqrt[3]{x}} ; x=u^{6}$$
Graph the function \(f(x)=\frac{1}{x \sqrt{x^{2}-36}}\) on its domain. Then find the area of the region \(R_{1}\) bounded by the curve and the \(x\) -axis on \([-12,-12 / \sqrt{3}]\) and the area of the region \(R_{2}\) bounded by the curve and the \(x\) -axis on \([12 / \sqrt{3}, 12] .\) Be sure your results are consistent with the graph.
